Almost four months after the revelation that Facebook failed to stop data analytics firm Cambridge Analytica from utilizing improperly obtained data of up to 87 million Facebook users, U.S. agencies have remained quiet as to what punishment the company will face, if any.

David Vladeck, a Georgetown Law professor and former director of the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection, told The Post that reports of an expanded investigation from several federal agencies does not bode well for Facebook and raises "all sorts of red flags".

Facebook said in March that Cambridge Analytica, a firm that worked for Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign, obtained data improperly.

In 2014, Facebook introduced stricter rules for developers that made it harder for third-party apps to access data from Facebook users and their friends, and also made it easier for users to protect their data and privacy.

As a reminder, Facebook never disclosed that it had discovered Cambridge Analytica siphoning off data of millions of its users in 2015 until the media discovered and reported the incident earlier this year. Accordingly, the FTC takes very seriously recent press reports raising substantial concerns about the privacy practices of Facebook.
